Walking into the Los Angeles unit, which over the weekend drew long lines while offering free joe, is like entering a real Starbucks, except that almost every label and circular logo inside also features the word “dumb.”

On the menu, posted via a Dumb Starbucks profile on Twitter that has four tweets and more than 5,000 followers: a “dumb Frappuccino,” a “dumb blond roast,” a “wuppy duppy latte” and more.

An FAQ sheet posted inside the store explains the rationale of the mysterious owners.

“We are simply using their name and logo for marketing purposes. By adding the word ‘dumb’ we are technically ‘making fun’ of Starbucks, which allows us to use their trademarks under a law known as ‘fair use.’”

Starbucks, which said it earned record revenue in its most recent quarter, begs to differ.

“We are evaluating next steps, and while we appreciate the humor, they cannot use our name, which is a protected trademark,” Hutson said.

This, after all, is the same company that late last year sent a cease and desist letter to a tiny pub in Cottleville, Mo., warning the business to stop serving a so-called Frappicino beer because the name sounded too similar to Starbucks’ trademarked Frappuccino coffee drink.

“Simply calling something a “parody” does not provide some kind of magical protection against infringement,” he said. “You can’t just take a famous logo and trade dress, call it dumb, and use it to sell the very same products in competition with the company you’re making fun of.”]
